In a bid to improve the travel experience while prioritising passenger safety and comfort, Central Railway’s Mumbai Division has launched a focused ticket-checking drive in first-class coaches of suburban trains to curb irregular travel and uphold service standards for its first-class commuters.
This new system will be introduced from Monday.
In response to the ongoing complaints about unauthorised travel in first-class compartments, Mumbai Division’s ticket-checking teams will now be specifically assigned to all first-class coaches during peak hours on a rotational basis, accompanied by RPF (Railway Protection Force) personnel. These teams will conduct checks from one end of the line to the other, ensuring thorough inspections throughout the train’s journey.
